Welcome Lions! My name is Sarah Gillespie. This is my first year at Central Middle School, and my first year teaching! I am so excited to be joining the wonderful team here at CMS. My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that all students are capable, hard-working, and willing to learn. In my classroom students will always be free to express themselves, safe, and encouraged to learn. I love social studies and believe this subject is the key to molding empathetic and informed citizens. As we progress through the school year I encourage parents and students to reach out to me with any comments, questions, or concerns. I look forward to having an amazing 2024-2025 school year!
